BJJ - 1 hour - more deep half guard work

Notes

Position starting to make a lot more sense. Gradually feeling like I am more and more in control during sparring. Feels so much better when you can pause in a position and try to make plans and active decisions, instead of just terrible gut reactions.

Reverse crunch > HLR > knee raise drop set

Notes

Huge row PR. Always hard to judge a bit bc form can make such a difference, but it felt strong, and the second set was good too, as were pullovers. Progress on the isolation movements too -- just took more of an attacking mindset, every rep max velocity rather than pure concentric control

BJJ - 1 hour

Notes

Good workout. Mild elbow flare up at one point, but overall it is still progressing back to full recovery well. Doesn't interfere with anything, but unpredictable nature of scrubs doing BJJ can put it in dodgy spots.

Last month was all closed guard, but now we're moving to half guard. Feel lost again, so time to study! Find bjj very intellectually engaging.

need to watch this video later: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8x1Cva8hJ8

Dips: - corner of fence railing - 10 dip shrugs, BW x10 leg assisted, BW x5
backpack loaded +10kg x3, +20kg x3

+27.5kg x12 @ RPE 9.5 (+2.5kg)  :personal-record:

Have no idea why my dips are so far ahead of my chins...


Dips are just way easier than chins. I am very unusual in having stronger chins than dips, but that will basically not be true in a few more weeks as my dips catch up since they're relatively untrained, whereas I have consistently been doing some form of weighted chin for most of the last 5 years, and much of my life before that as well.

BJJ - 1 hour

Notes

Worked on triangle chokes. Big thighs seem like a mild impediment since it's harder to get your legs inside the chin gap. This is why many top BJJ guys don't train legs, lmao.

Woke up with a raging headache which is still lingering. Been sleeping poorly in the heat. Feel quite fatigued from training, but still progressing so don't feel super like I need a deload, but may take Fri/Sat off depending how i feel.

Edit: one day I will go to bjj _not_ having done an extensive lifting session the day before, and it's gonna feel like i've unlocked a super power

Slightly changed db incline form, elbows a little closer to sides to target upper pecs a bit more.

Didn't use belt on rows, and surprisingly felt like that helped me maintain tightness better.

BJJ - 1 hour

Notes

worked various cross-collar attacks from closed guard. didn't fully get to grips with the sweep, but instructor gave me some more details after the class that helped. feel quite weird to choke someone tbh.
